The proposition to place tt

The proposition to place the
telegraph under the control of the
Government meets with the severest
displeasure of DIR. Norvin Green.
The fact that DIR. NorVin Green is
the President of Jay Gould's West
ern Union and has a pretty good
job where he is, may weaken the
force OF his objections somewhat.
The strongest objection to the Gov
eminent control of the telegraph
comes now from the weak
ness of the civil service law. The
greed of the Western Union and the
six-fold watering of its stock have
overcome most other objections.
But if the telegraph is to be added
to the postoffice as a political ma
chine it would strengthen the party
in power to such an extent that it
would be almost impossible to dis
lodge it. There are $4,000 post-of-
fees at the disposal of the vlctors
now.

Let them know hat the Democratic

out of the wilderness OF twenty
four years of defeat, is the very man
who to-day desires to deprive the
American laboring citizen of his daily
bread, who attempts to sanctify a
doctrine that might leave the wives
and children to the tender hands of
charity. For, just SO sure az Free

and if the wheels ever whirl again,
they will keep time to the tears of
the wives of good American citizens
and to the jabber of paupers inn

fairy tale. Every laboring man
who has read knows it is true. The
gauntlet has been thrown down. 1t
now becomes the duty of the Re-

comes its duty to nominate the

effort to make the civil service some
thing more than party machine is IN

certain quarters that the willingness OF

have the President unfettered in the

about sixty days to- clean out every
Democratic office-holder in the coun-

be repeated with the Tenure-of-O Office

give the Republicans who supported
the repeal of vicious law the
credit for doing so on conviction,
without reference to the party con-

WILLOW CULTURE.
4 Profitable Crop for Agriculturists Who
Have the Proper Land.


Have the Proper Land.
"The cultivation of osier-willow has
| become separate branch of farming"
said North Side chair manufacturer.
when asked where all the material used
in chair and basket-making came from,
land very profitable branch, too he
added, with an retrospective turning of
his eye-balls. There are willow-farms
in good many States, but until re-
are sixteen farms devoted exclusively
to willow-raising in Wayne County,
that State. Of late, however, Georgia
has been coming rapidly to the front,
and it looks as if she would become the
great willow State. I have just returned
home from a visit to farm in Twiggs
County, Georgia. Twiggs isn't bad
name for willow county, is it?
"The labor of planting, cultivating
and harvesting the willow is very light
and is mostly done by women and chill
dren, the prolific broods of little dark
les proving very useful. Low, swampy
land is the best for raising willows, but
they will grow almost anywhere. In
planting, small shoots or twigs are
used, and the cost is about fifteen dol
lars per acre! From single planting
crops may be gathered for years. No
replanting is required, and the only ex-
pense is in gathering and trimming.
The former costs about sixteen dollars
per acre. The trimming costs about six
dollars per acre more. An average
yield is about five tons per acre, worth
fifteen to sixteen dollars per ton in the
rough.
1.-The switches are cut from four to
seven feet long. They are placed in
bundles like sheaves of wheat, and,
when the harvest is over. are taken to
the stripping-building and soaked in a
vat filled with water. The large ends
are then placed in a peculiar little ma
chine, which loosens the bark for u
couple of inches. The withes are af-
terward laid, one by one, in the strip
pers, and, with a pair of pliers, are
pulled through with one jerk. This
process takes off the bark and leaves.
The switches are then wiped with
wooden cloths, bundled and laid away
to dry. The leaves and bark are dried
and baled and command big price.
They are used in making certain kinds
of medicine and liniment. The bark
and leaves pay for the entire crop.
The big profits made have attracted a
good many into the business of raising
willows, and in the last two years prices
have dropped twenty per cent. There
is plenty of margin, yet, however, and
the event promises to rival peppermint
growing in profitableness.- Chicago

is THE MOON PEOPLED?
a French Astronomer Gives Reasons for
Thinking That 1t Is.

Thinking That Is.
Up to the present time we have re-
marked nothing on the moons face
which leads us to suspect the existence
of thinking humanity in that small
celestial island. Nevertheless those as
tronomers who specially observe our
satellite, and who study all its singular
aspects with attention and perseverance,
are generally of the opinion that the
planet is not so dead as it looks. We
must not forget that in the present con-
dition of optics it is difficult practically
to apply to the study of the moon a
magnifier superior to two thousand
times To see this world two thousand
times nearer than it is in the sky is only
to bring it within forty-eight leagues.
Now what can be clearly distinguished
at distance of one hundred and nine
ty-two Kilometres? An army on the
march? A great city? Perhaps; but
it is very doubtful. 1t is certain that
enigmatical variations are going on on
the surface of the moon, especially in
the arena of the circle of Plato. 1t is
also certain that the lunar globe, forty
one times smaller than the globe and
eighty-one times less 1heavy, exercises
upon its surface weight only one-sixth
as great as that which exists on tho
surface of our planet, in such way
that an atmosphere analogous to that
which we breathe would be six times
nearer and difficult to perceive from
here. There is, therefore. nothing sur
prising in the fact that this neighbor
would differ SO greatly from ours. If
you look at THO earth from Il balloon
which is four q five thousand feet high
our planet APPEARS deserted, uninhab-
tied, silent as an immense cemetery,
and any one rtarning from the moon
in a balloon might reasonably wonder.

COLLAR AND CUFF BAG,
Convenient and Pretty Receptacle - Made
Out of Fancy Turkish Towels.


Almost every woman has :e1t the
need of n separate bag for collars and
cuffs, especially if her husbands are
sent to the laundry, as they so often
are. and must therefore b" kept sepa-
rate from the general family wash. Or
if not needed for this purpose, still a
small and ornamental bag substantial
enough to be thoroughly useful comes
in handy fer the r ndkerchiefs and
laces that require more delicate hand
ling than Bridget's.
Such a bag may be made out of the
fancy Turkish towels to be had any
where for twenty-five cents a piece.
Those with blue, pink or yellow
grounds. and a brocaded pattern of
raised white upon them, are especially
pretty. The pink and blue will wash,
as the writer knows, but the yellow she
has not tried. The bags are made by
doubling the towel, and scanning the
edges to within four inches of the top,
not including the fringe. These flaps
are then turned over so as to make a
sort of little lambrequin, and line of
SlllCH1uS pun 'totI II tliliu VI an lItU
from the top, thus forming hem in
which to place the draw-strings.
Next run number three ribbon
through the hem. so that it will draw
from both sides, and finish the bag by a
large bow of ribbon upon the front, Just
below the fringe. Pink and blue rib
bons, mixed, are pretty upon either q
blue or pink bag.
To wash, remove the ribbons and
press out the draw-string. The bow
will not need attention for a long time
if properly made. Soak blue towels in
strong brine, say half a cup of salt to a
quart of water, an hour or two before
washing. Do not boil. Pink towels
should be soaked at least an hour
in vinegar and water, half of each, and
enough to cover. If in the soaking any
part should be left dry, it will generally
be found to have faded. Pink or blue
goods of any description may be
washed without losing color in this
manner. For very delicate pink, pure
vinegar should be used.
These bags look well hung on the
nail to which the bedroom curtains are
tied, their delicate color showing pref
tily against white curtains in particu-
lar.-Mo750n Foster WashburWe, in Good

USEFUL MICROBES,
An Earnest Authoritative Plea for
These Prosecuted Anfmalculse.


These Prosecuted Anfmalculse.
A great deal of ill-feeiing has been
excited apent these unfortunate ami
malcula, whose size should have in
sured them protection against con-
tumely and insult. There is scarcely q
disease, scarcely mishap. but what
they are inveighed against and con-
demned without hearing. and often,
indeed, without being even called upon
to put in an appe arance. As an indie
pendent journal we feel it our duty to
protest against wholesale and often I'M
founded denunciations by individuals
not unfrequentlv formulated more
with a view to self-aggrandizeme
and notoriety that from any positive
ill-will toward these humble little
beasts. We will not deny that few
engage in the elaboration of the virus
of typhoid, smallpox and measles, to
say nothing of hydrophobia, and a
variety of other uncomfortable visitita-
tons for mankind, it is only natural
that we should retaliate by calling
them opprobious names in dog Latin,
and by poisoning them wholesale when
and where we can bring our animosity
to bear upon them. They have mani
testify violated the statutes in such cases
made and provided. But on the other
hand, we will assert, with the courage
and independence that is our wont,
that if there were no microbes there
would be no mankind, and our dis
putes would be silenced in death. AS
an American contemporary points
out, there are about thousand
species busily engaged in the destruc-
ton of wood, and, were it not for their
intervention, that all the trees that
grew would be standing to-day, living,
or it may be dead, but in any case as
solid, as sound and as firm as when
they ceased to grow, and all life must
have been choked out ages since. Fire
alone would have relieved mother earth
of the incubus thus weighing upon her,
but only with the result of leaving every
patch of land parched and ash-cov-
cred area, inadequate-at any rate, for
some time-to the maintenance of life,
even if we ourselves had not at the
same time been prematurely scorched
off the face of the earth. They
are accused of communicating our
water, but it is equally certain
that were it not for their ceaseless ac-
tivity all the water in the world would
be concentrated solution of excre-
mentitious and noxious products, the
disintegration of which is due to these
little organisms. Our very digestion
depends upon them to a great extent,
and if they were withdrawn from the
circulation we should very shortly be-
come painfully aware of the fact. No,
let there be no class distinctions; every
community has its black sheep, and
these should very properly be branded
with the mark of infamy. The exist
ence, however, of these misconducted
atoms will not justify our extending
the anathemas to the countless millions
of their species in whom, and with
whom, we live, and move, and have
our being. Medical Press.

among the Gteks that no one at the

body of any aimal that was served up,
but that they hould eat of the part that
